Chapter 2125: Gao Tongguang's Probing

Yuan Yifu raised his wrist impatiently to look at his watch. He said to Gao Tongguang, "Old Gao, it's been almost three hours, why is there still no news?"

It was almost six o'clock when the incident happened, and now it was almost nine o'clock, so it had indeed been almost three hours.

Yuan Yifu's mobile phone would ring from time to time. This was the city urging to ask about Pang Xingjie's situation. Yuan Yifu was now afraid as soon as he heard the sound of the phone. Every time he said there was no news yet, he would hear a roar.

Now Yuan Yifu's mobile phone battery had been changed once, and the battery that was changed down was also charging on the side. Tonight, he definitely didn't dare to let his mobile phone shut down.

Gao Tongguang also looked at the time and said, "Secretary Yuan, there is no way. The information they can provide is too little. We can only rely on manpower to search for that jeep. I have also been asking, and they can't find that jeep. They checked all the jeeps in the whole county, and not a single one drove to the County Party Committee reception house at six o'clock today."

Yuan Yifu said hatefully, "This damn thing also blames the County Party Committee reception house. Their vigilance is too poor, right? When those few people went upstairs, no one discovered it?"

Wu Zhengjing said cautiously, "Secretary, this is also an accident. The time when the incident happened was just when the waiters were changing shifts. The waiters who finished work had all left, and the waiters who were taking over hadn't arrived yet. It was just a matter of two or three minutes, and this thing happened."

Yuan Yifu said, "Don't defend them. The waiters taking over hadn't arrived, couldn't the waiters handing over wait a while longer? In the final analysis, the safety awareness is not enough. This time, if Director Pang is found, it's fine. If he can't be found, all of them will be dismissed for me, and the County Party Committee reception house will be reorganized!"

Wu Zhengjing shuddered. The County Party Committee reception house was under his charge. The current manager was his nephew-in-law, and every year from this, he could fish a lot of oil and water; otherwise, what would he use to honor Yuan Yifu?

If all the people in the reception house were dismissed and reorganized this time, not to mention losing a share of oil and water, he would also be implicated. The Standing Committee Deputy County Magistrate position Yuan Yifu promised him didn't know if it was reliable either.

Gao Tongguang said, "This is also because it is night, the vision is not good, and it is very difficult to search. However, Secretary Yuan, don't worry. Four or five hundred police officers in the whole county have been mobilized. As long as they are still in Chongjin County, they will definitely be found."

Yuan Yifu said, "I'm just afraid they are no longer in Chongjin County."

Gao Tongguang said, "At the Yangtze River ferry, it is impossible to open the boat after six o'clock at night. We also sent police officers to investigate. After six o'clock, the ferry had indeed stopped. If they want to leave Chongjin County, they can only go in the three directions of east, west, and south. We have already notified the public security departments in these three directions to help us coordinate the investigation, but there is no news yet."

Yuan Yifu said, "Then in that case, they are very likely still in Chongjin County?"

Gao Tongguang said, "It's hard to say, because it's night, the public security departments in other places may not be willing to spend great efforts to help us coordinate the investigation. It is possible that they didn't see that car pass by. However, I think there is still a great possibility that they are still in Chongjin County."

Yuan Yifu said, "Then look for it for me. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find it out for me!"

Gao Tongguang said, "If they are still within the territory of Chongjin County, they should be able to be found out, because we have already deployed control at all intersections, and they should be difficult to escape."

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Gao, if they don't take the highway, then the control will have no effect, right?"

Gao Tongguang said, "This possibility is not non-existent. Now there are too many small roads, and our police force is also limited, so it is impossible to control them all. However, walking on small roads at night is still relatively dangerous. I think they shouldn't choose small roads."

Yuan Yifu smoked one cigarette after another. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. If Pang Xingjie really couldn't be found, he really couldn't imagine such consequences.

Other county leaders also had serious expressions, saying nothing, and were silently smoking cigarettes there.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was very oppressive.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it was past eleven o'clock at night. Seeing that those older county leaders were very tired, Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Yuan, it's not a thing for so many people to wait here. Just go back, and I will wait here with Secretary Gao. If there is any news, I will call you immediately."

Yuan Yifu was also indeed very tired. He was almost sixty years old, his spirit was not very good, and he was easily tired. And other county leaders were not young either, and they were usually pampered, so they were not used to staying up late. He nodded and said, "Fine, County Magistrate, Old Gao, then I will trouble you."

Gao Tongguang said, "It's fine, Secretary Yuan, you all go back."

Gao Tongguang had to sit in command here, so he definitely couldn't leave. And Su Xinghui was the youngest among the county leaders, and his body was also the best, so he took the initiative to stay and wait for news.

Su Xinghui had already called home after nine o'clock, telling Lu Xiaoya that he might have to stay here for a night today. Lu Xiaoya also knew that a big thing had happened. She told Su Xinghui that she was at home, telling him not to worry.

Yuan Yifu and the others all left, leaving only Su Xinghui and Gao Tongguang in the meeting room.

Gao Tongguang called several subordinates again, and the answer there was still that the jeep hadn't been found. Gao Tongguang hung up the phone, shook his head, and said, "County Magistrate, I estimate it will be difficult to find it tonight. If it doesn't work, we will have to stay here for a night."

Su Xinghui said, "It's fine. The two of us guarding here can be considered to have a companion, and it's not that difficult to endure."

Gao Tongguang said, "The people who took Director Pang away today, I feel they are very professional. They specifically acted when the reception house was changing shifts, and it was almost dark. Even if others saw them, it would be very difficult to see their license plate clearly. These are all very professional practices."
